Olivia Chow was literally a school board trustee from 1985-1992, a city councillor from 1992-2006, and a member of parliament from 2006-2014. But sure, she’s just the “wife” of Jack Layton.
If you live in Toronto, you live in a city whose mayor is most notable for being the wife of another politician, a province whose premier is most notable for being the brother of another politician, and a country whose PM is most notable for being the son of another politician.
